Hello Everyone,

Following our appeal for information yesterday on the Gerbil which was
scratching its ear/head we forwarded your replies on and we received the
following email this morning:

"When I got home last night, there was no improvement, so I took her to the
vet, but a different one.  This vet gave my gerbil a antibiotic injection
and an anti-inflammatory injection.  He said that they didn't have a scope
small enough to look into her ears, so he couldn't be sure of what the
problem was.  I also have a 5-day course of antibiotics for her.  This
morning she was awake, but would not let me pick her up.  I think she's
still a bit mad about having 2 injections!  I'll have another go at
lunchtime, as I have to give her the medication. Thanks ever so much for the
advice..."

Thank you to everyone who helped with this situation - which has certainly
helped this Gerbil carer.

All the very best....
